#Relationships #Coincidence

Many people ask me all the time, why I spend so much time and money and effort to #KeepInTouch

This week, I traveled to East TN to not only get my hair done, with a stylist I have got to know and grown to love, but to visit one of my closest friends since I was 19 years old, and I got to have lunch w another lady on the road there with a girl I have been friends with probably over 5 years, and same thing since both of them don’t live close, I make an effort to contact when I am going that way to visit and reconnect with and build our relationship.

Facebook and other social media, texting and emails are great! I am very thankful for wonderful technology that helps me to keep in touch easier.

But I still #Love and #Cherish actual #cards in the mail as well as #inperson or #BellyToBelly as they say.

Today, I got a phone call from a man that I hadn’t spoke to in probably 10 years. He is still on my Keep in Touch, #ChristmasCard list.

In our short catch up talk – not only did he want to re-check in about possibly using my cards service for his #personal and #professional life, but also with talking, it was funny, I mentioned remembering him last week, and told him why, and he said, I just read a book on that, was able to give me that information for a health issue I have had, and then he also mentioned his daughter just lost her husband, and so I was able to give some info that might be able to help her, since I have walked in those shoes.

It is really amazing, when you stop to listen, and build those relationships. It not only will greatly improve your life emotional, spiritually, physically, personally, but financially and professionally.

Who just came across your mind while reading this note? Reach out to them today, build that relationship…..if it is *tough*…..that is even more of a reason…..you are not promised tomorrow to do it, and your life will be better if you do it today. <3

I found one of his notes to me…..he always wrote me love notes and put on my desk so I would see when I got to work…(a perk of having an office at home) lol
Oh how I miss him talking to me and sending me notes…after almost 5 years, still love and miss you every single day.

I’m sending you one more picture, since I didn’t think that either one turned out very good. That way you can pick the least worst one, ha ha .

I’m sitting here comparing my face in this picture to the pictures that I recently put up on the right side of the computer of us in the photo booth. It is so funny, I look like such a little boy in the ones from the photo booth ( I also can’t believe that I used to wear two necklaces at once – what a dork ! ) I used to hate looking so young, now I wish I wasn’t so old !

You, of course, look like God’s gift to men in those pictures! How I ever got you to go out with me is a mystery. We must have just recently gotten your engagement ring, you are trying so hard to show it off in the first two ; )

I had forgotten about that until I found the pictures again ( I knew exactly which one of the ten huge albums that it was in, by the way ) However I thought
that I remembered the pictures being black and white. I must have been thinking about the pictures of you and your friend Dawn in a photo booth ( also one of my favorites of you ) I think that my very most favorite picture of you is in photo album 1, you are wearing a red top with white sleeves, your hair is very curly and black, and you are smiling very big, with your eyes squinting and your braces showing ( very very sexy ) I’ve always meant to ask you where you were & how old you were in that picture, but I always forget to ask you the next time I see you, and also
I’m almost afraid to ask, in case an old boyfriend took the picture, or you cut him out of the picture(s) ( there are two of them ), because I wouldn’t want to ruin it for me.

Anyway, I am going to stop rambling now because I know that you have a lot of other mail that you have to read, and I don’t want you to have to spend all day on the computer.
I love you, Laurie. P.S. don’t let me sleep too long today, and be thinking of when you want to go to the gym. xoxoxoxoxo
